Doggone my soul how I love them old songs
They were a comfort to me when I was alone
The dancing stops but the music goes on
Doggone my soul how I love them old songs
Oh when I hear that double eagle guitar
It makes me think how trouble free girl we are
There was a time I spent my nights in a bar
Playing that old jukebox until the honky tonky locked up
Doggone my mind just won`t leave me alone
Keeps on reminding me I`m so far from home
Those heart breaking aching eggs and bacon country songs
They take me back to hardwood floors out door johns and mason jars
It`s all I can do to believe that it`s gone
That hard knocking rock and rolling life that I`ve known
But the dancing is over and the music must go on
Doggone my soul how I love them old songs how I love them old songs
